The Great Notts Bake Off!

Heathcotes Hucknall and Watnall decided to create some rainy day indoor activity this week by hosting their very own 'Great British Bake Off' themed competition!

Staff and service users from both houses went head to head in the ultimate baking battle, all keen to prove their baking prowess. Sugar, eggs, flour, determination and elbow grease proved to be a recipe for success with our bakers producing some delectable sweet treats. The entry that took the overall winner title were the themed buns, expertly piped with buttercream to spell out the Heathcotes names and logo - a very deserved winner!

With the festive period now fast approaching, our services are beginning to think about what baked goodies they can produce to support the National Autistic SocietyFestiviTea Party and we are looking forward to hosting events across our services in support of this great cause; no doubt there will be lots of willing volunteers on hand to perform the all important taste tests!

Allison Stafford, Regional Manager for Nottinghamshire said, 'It's great to see everyone having fun and really enjoying an activity; it's also a great opportunity to support people to develop kitchen skills that promote independence - fantastic!'.
